Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1.5 pounds beef chuck, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 3 large garlic cloves, minced
- 2 pieces celery stalks, diced
- 2 medium carrots, diced
- 1 medium zucchini, diced
- 6 cups beef broth
- 1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes
- 1 whole bay leaf
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.
Season the beef cubes with salt and black pepper.
Add the beef to the pot and brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from pot and set aside.
In the same pot, add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic, diced celery, and diced carrots. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Return the browned beef to the pot. Stir in the beef broth, diced tomatoes with their juices, and the bay leaf.
Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let simmer for 60 minutes.
Add the diced zucchini and continue to simmer for another 15 minutes, or until the vegetables and beef are tender.
Discard the bay leaf and taste for seasoning, adjusting with more salt and pepper if necessary.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
